I met Manuche-Postcardsfrom aka Emanuela Porceddu an autumn afternoon, while I was desperately looking for inspiration on instagram.

As soon as I saw her profile, I immediately thought she looked like Amélie, the protagonist of Jean-Pierre Jeunet's film: brown bob, giant eyes always on the move, and a proud and determined look, typical of Sardinian women.

Immediately I fell in love with her creations: a hedgehog, a small fish, a stylized little chicken, the needles of a pine photographed on holiday, everything can be transformed into a drawing and repeated as long as the matrix resists.

And I have always seen many serigraphs, but all already finished. I never had been attending to the whole process starting from scratch, that is from how much the frame is still intact.

So, one day I took courage and wrote to her. And she was kind enough to let me watch her create. We met in the Pati Llimona civic center, in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, ??where Manu and other silk-screen printers share a work space.
